It’s safe to say that brakes are the most important safety feature in a vehicle. Without them, you could get into a serious accident in Danvers, Peabody, or Salem.
That’s why it’s crucial to keep up with maintenance on your entire braking system, including the brake pads. How long do brake pads last before they need to be replaced?
We’ll answer that question in our guide to brake pads. Learn all about them below and contact us at Ira Toyota of Danvers if you have any questions.
Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, but some can last as long as 100,000 miles.
There are many factors that account for this wide range. First, brake pads come in a variety of types and compositions and are attached to even more varying brake systems and rotors. These large number of combinations will affect the life of a brake pad. Added to that are heat, pressure, and friction, which may start to wear down faster than you’d like. When that happens, you’ll want to schedule a service appointment as soon as possible.
There are ways to extend the lifespan of brake pads. One way is choosing the right type for your vehicle. There are several types of brake pads out there, including:
Not only is choosing the right brake pad important, but adjusting your driving style is, too. Speed is a big factor in limiting brake pad life. Driving fast then stopping suddenly will burn brake pads very quickly.
Cargo can be another contributing factor. The more stuff you have inside your vehicle, the heavier it’ll weight. More mass means more brake power is needed to slow down and stop your car.
You’ll also want to get the brake fluid flushed regularly, about every 25,000 miles. If the brake fluid is dirty or at a low level, then that’ll catch up to the brake pads. Brake fluid is what lubricates the entire braking system, including brake pedals. When the fluid is dirty, the pedals won’t work correctly, which will affect the pads.
If your car’s brake pads need to be checked out, then schedule service your brake service at Ira Toyota of Danvers. Our technicians either repair your current brake pads or replace them with the right type for your vehicle.
We’ll only use genuine parts to keep your car running well for a long time. We’ll also work quickly and efficiently, to get you back on the Danvers, Peabody, and Salem streets in no time.

Excellent!!! In all areas. Staff willing to serve and to help in everything. This is my dealer
This is a great place to do business with. They are on top of everything
Bring my car in for service today Angel Pimentel a great help he explained everything to me. Thanks for you all the great service. Vin
My experience with Kedwin was SUPERB! He was so pleasant and help me purchase a new vehicle after I told him exactly what I was looking for! He actually found me a 2025 RAV4 within my price range (I was looking at verified pre-owned, wasn’t considering a new one)! He really was great! A+ customer service. My previous experience 14 years ago purchasing a car was so unpleasant, I feared going to dealership but, rest assured, Kedwin was amazing and friendly, knowledgeable and provided guidance and suggestions that suited my needs! Great experience this car buying trip!
They are great especially my service advisor. He takes the time to explain what is going to happen.
They did a good job…it’s annoying when you are always trying to sell something…even before checking to see if it is needed…
I've been going to this dealership for a while now and the service time is terrible. Just finished the service and state inspection, told about 2 hours but it took 3 hours. Every time I've gone I've been told 2 hours but it has never been that, almost always at least 3 hours (or more). I've even got my car back with trash in it from the service people. My wifes Hyundai full service takes 1 hour. Maybe it's time to find a new dealership or a new car brand. I'm fed up of wasting so much of my ...
They were pretty easy to deal with, very reliable and accommodating. They did not me with messages (text, email, voicemail). In the end, I got a pretty good deal and the car was in great shape, ready to go quickly. The facility was a bit overwhelming, feeling like an airport terminal, with all the various parts and pieces. Abdou was charming, efficient and responsive.
All the people were very nice, especially our saleswomen Jacqueline Carrion. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Came in to downsize my truck - having a few children getting to driving age soon- I needed a smaller truck. Leida Qirjazi was the lovely woman I worked with. She was the first person to greet me as I entered the building at 9am at Ita Toyota of Danvers. And I’m so happy I met her. She was amazing to work with. She helped get me what I needed for my trade - and the payment to where I was extremely happy. I also enjoyed working with the management staff and the finance people. I would recommend using ...
This dealership has great customer service, sales representatives who work with integrity, and an extremely helpful and friendly staff.
Augustine (Gus) was a pleasure to deal with. Good car at a good price with no high pressure shenanigans. We did have to wait for a very long time to complete the transaction due to the finance dept being short staffed. After that Gus was very responsive and kept us up to date with progress toward delivery, and he had everything ready for us to drive off when we arrived to pickup the car. Highly recommend.
This was my third and likely the last experience with this dealership—everything that should have gone smoothly did not. Example 1: I visited on a Friday to explore end-of-lease options. I found a car and was waiting for pricing when the sales rep returned with three options. I was pleased with one but wanted to check one more car before deciding. Then, the sales manager, Michael, stepped in, pushed for a commitment, and suddenly claimed the numbers were wrong—raising my preferred option by $200 more per month. He dismissed the error as "human" but then said, "You ...
Alexander was great for service. Staff were friendly and helpful. Work was completed to my satisfaction. Car was washed and windows cleaned which made my day! Thanks
Great dealership! Great selection of inventory. Great customer service. Fast and knowledgeable sales associates answering all my questions. Best car buying experience I ever have had. My salesman Jason was top notch. No fuss or hassle, right to the point! I will definitely be telling everyone to go see Jason at IRA Toyota.
They were kind and efficient! Rick was very helpful, welcoming and kind. He explained things well.
Been a customer since 2002. Leased numerous vehicles and just bought out a lease . Financed they Toyota
Great staff, it was professional, answered to all the questions, and they will help in the future.
I have been dealing with Ira Toyota for quite a few yrs now and been more then satisfied.
I LOVE going to that Dealership because I trust my work being done to my car! Matt is VERY DETAIL person! He doesn't hold back on any information that has to do with my Service.
Great diagnosis of car and all was quickly repaired. My agent Rick was .ore than awesome. He was so friendly and gave me great advice. I have been an Ira customer since the 1970's and have never been disappointed with the work and staff. I hope Rick will be able to continue as my service rep. Thanks to all.
Oil change promotion final price was as advertised. Service was timely and accommodating since I arrived early. Provided me(by text) with results of vehicle checkup. They even washed the car.
I have been coming here for a decade and have never had a bad experience. I have dealt with a few different service people all of whom have been great: today I was fortunate to have David Rojas again. I will buy my next car here as well!!
Angel went above & beyond! He knew the wait times to long for 3 young kids to. Bear. He was also very sensitive to our financial needs. The kids said he really was an Angel!!! Thank you!!!
Dealership tried to pull a fast one on me today. Trade value of my vehicle was $8000.00 (NADA, Bluebook, and Cargurus average) and the vehicle I was looking to purchase was $10100.00 leaving about $2400.00 when you add in the fees taxes etc... The delay they presented me showed $9250.00 owed after trade. Upon looking at the offer there were close to $4000.00 in fees and addons. Including 2 that were completely fraudulent. $1134.00 Reinstall fee $499.00 IKON protection $300.00 for nitrogen in tires (which was done by previous owner) receipt from 2021 in glovebox. They tried to charge for a service they were not providing. If I wasn't ...
Just bought a new car and only spent a half day from deciding on the best for us to paperwork of Finance
Clean, organized and staff were friendly. Accepted without appointment. Conducted an inspection, without my request or permission. I didn’t like that.
Richie was great. That basically says it all. Also your business manager for the loan was also great at handling everything. This is my second Toyota and I love my first that is a 2006.
I went in without an app, and they took care of me. Super friendly staff, a pleasure to do business w them.
Recall appointment- after getting ride there and back/ leaving car there- they call that there was no part in stock- could they have not checked that before making appointment— extremely inconvenient
I am now at 15 years with my truck and it still drives like the day it was new.
I stopped without an appointment and was thankful they were able to fix my car so I could travel out of state the next day.
They are rude. Had to wait over 40 minutes after my service was complete to get paperwork to pay
Way to long of a wait every time I take my truck in for service
Nathaniel Brungot is highly professional and extremely detail-oriented in his work. Overall, he did an excellent job!
Clear explanation of a problem. Quick diagnosis very happy with the service I was in good hands
Dealing with Ira Toyota, Danvers was a pleasure. Like most people, I would say that buy a car from a dealer can be anxiety provoking to say the least. My last new car purchased was 10 years ago, My sales specialist, Kledion Tare, made my experience nearly painless and almost stress free. I got the exact car I wanted ((2025 Rav 4 Limited, with all the features I wanted). The car arrived sooner than expected. The only stress I felt had nothing to do with my dealer experience, but with my own insurance company. I can't speak highly enough of Kledi and ...
Edwin, service advisor was very helpful and went out of his way to help. He is a great rep.
Serbia was fast they did the repairs, and I was not within 2 hours. The staff was very friendly and helpful
Bruce is always a pleasure to work with as a service manager. He always goes the extra mile and certainly did this time with finding me a loaner vehicle on short notice!
I’ve been here to buy my car and it was super comfortable, and I’ve done service to my car here about 4 times and every time it is the easiest, no stress experience! The staff is extremely friendly and one person in specific, Rick Harper, is the best!
The attendant was nice and very kind . He made the whole process easy and fast .
Tysm Hitesh and Eddy you guys are awesome! I couldn’t have asked for a better car! We’ll be there soon to upgrade my husband’s car as well.
They are always polite and courteous. I wish I had been told how long a wait I was in for.I brought in for routine maintenance and was told I needed alignment and balance, maybe 90 mins. 3 hours later my car was done
Kledion Tare was very helpful .We’re very happy with the service. He’s the best!
I was served immediately after arriving at the dealership. I was quoted a price for the services and I agreed with the process of going forward.
Isaac Ruiz was an awesome person to work with to ensure the car test drive, negotiations, and sold process went smoothly and painlessly.
Had 8:00 am appointment for oil change and to change setting on my car. Took 3.5 hours and they didn't even change the setting. Wanted the fake engine noise that is piped in the cabin shut OFF. They said it was a safety feature and couldn't do it. I specifically asked for Engine Sound Enhancement (ESE) to be turned off and they confused it with the pedestrian warning required for hybrids called Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS). AVAS is outside the vehicle and I would not want that turned off. The fact that the dealer does not know their own ...
Brisk, competent, friendly service. Take care of Lyft rides both ways if necessary, on them. As painless as can be. Get all service at IRA Danvers; 5th car bought there.
I would highly recommend this dealership. My Representative Rick was great! I couldn’t ask for a better Rep.
We have a 2011 LanCruiser and love to take good care of it. Ira Toyota has been the perfect place for us to service our vehicle. Angel who works in service has been great to work with
Fast professional and fair priced. Edwin was great and the video mpi was a nice add on.
Brought my car in for a check, engine lights, being on Ian and oil change, picked up car with maintenance required light still on and no oil change
The representative was very helpful with information and communication. My vehicle was ready on time.
Had an appointment for 11 AM. Die to having teo children with me stayed at deaership gor 4 and a half hrs. When I hot tired of waiting I confronted sales guy who told me problem was I do not have a gas cap. That should have been explained wothin 1/2 hr. They did not have a cap to sell me at deaership so I left without 1. Got 1 immediately at Autozone and that is not issue
I was greeted this morning and the staff were very attentive to me Great experience Thank you Best
The store is comfortable . The service associate very helpful. Just wish it was less expensive
2nd time in a row went to dealership and took over 3 hours. Both times told 2hours. Went for Oil Sticker and wiper blades with an appointment and was there for 3 hours 10 minutes. Missed a business meeting that I figured I gave myself plenty of time for
I wouldn’t have my Tacoma serviced anywhere else! Always professional, always punctual, always courteous!
Great service!! They took the time to explain everything we needed to know about our purchase
Thanks Ira Toyota to check always my fj cruiser. Great job service. See you guys soon.
Everyone was friendly and professional. All my questions were answered. I was comfortable in waiting area.
Best service congenial attitude would definitely recommend Ira Toyota Danvers to anybody interested in buying a car. Brendan and Kedwin were very helpful and recommend them to everybody. Excellent Customer service.
Ira Toyota is the best dealership I know. That team cares about your car and the client.
Easy to schedule my appointment. Everything explained to me clearly. I was given an estimate. Estimate was the same as my Bill . My advisor, Eddie he was very nice.
The employees are very friendly knowledgeable and explained what needed to be done clearly and precise.
Excellent salesman very professional and very friendly I will recommend To all my family and friends
Ira Toyota honored the Internet coupon for a battery no hassle no nothing quick service. I give them a very good rating on this issue.
Robert Flanagan made it easy and comfortable. Will buy from him any day. Thank you
It was very easy to make an appointment, however, it look over 2 hours to get notified on an update,, which only occurred after i initiated the question. When leaving, after payment, the problem was not resolved, had to get manager involved. Another 30 min delay while they fix it again.
I bought my car at Ira Toyota in Danvers 114. I am very pleased with all the staffs there especially my Sales person named Sage. He went above and beyond to work with me. I am very happy with him. If you are buying car I highly recommend to go to Ira toyota in Danverrs.
Helped me with an unexpected problem- gas tank cover wouldn’t open. They had the part and fixed it within a few hours! Fantastic!
Nick was an awesome service rep and was very helpful with my issues regarding my phone in the car
Fast service, easy drop off! Nice to get a much needed ride back to location.
Very respectful and friendly. Time estimates infuriate me. 1 1/2 to 2 hour estimate was 3 hour wait.
very attentive and creative solution to tire failure on 10000 mile rav4; cause of failure was uncertain but i was given 2/3 discount. Less pleasing was tthe 2-3 hrs required for mounting the new tire
Always takes over 1 1/2+ hours for a simple oil change. Even when you schedule an appointment in advanced.
Efficient, prompt, friendly service. Accomodating, on time , kept in touch throughout the process. Including car service that was provided .
Very good service and quick as well. Friendly staff and good videos help see what is going on with my car
At Ira Toyota, every person I dealt with I found to be friendly and respectful. They were not only knowledgeable, but also efficient. My sales person, Jack Mitzi, was incredibly helpful to me.
My Service Advisor was great.. The service to our car took way to long. Oil change and new sticker 4 hours. no wash or floor mat cleaning. left a mess inside car looking for our registration. Very unprofessional
Very good and fast services, very satisfied, good customer services, support and great staff, i liked
The team at Ira toyota denver is excellent they friendly and helpful I recommend them to all people that need a car and a place that they can trust the sellers.
Always great service. Very timely and efficient. Service call people are always pleasant and caring.
I was pleasantly surprised by how smoothly my service appointment at Ira Toyota went. I usually bring my car elsewhere for service, but I had a recall issue that needed to be handled at the dealership, so I scheduled that to be done, plus an oil change and routine multi-point inspection. I was leery of being pressured with suggestions for additional services based on the age and mileage of my car, as this had been my experience before at various dealerships over the years, but service advisor Rick Harper was very respectful of my choices, not only that I typically ...
Always get great service from Toyota of Danvers. Very impressed with my service advisor Angel Pimentel. He is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly.
Best auto dealer in new England by far. Richie sales agent best in town. Kenny finance guy super helpful and knowledgeable.
I had such a great experience buying a car from IRA Toyota. They had lots of cars in stock with competitive pricing. My sales person Richie M. was fantastic and kept us informed every step of the way. I wouldn’t hesitate from buying from them in the future.
I have used Ira Toyota for all my service needs. They are courteous, professional, and always do an excellent job!
Good experience. Would recommend this dealership. They understood my needs and worked with me to make it happen.
Thanks for always treating me with respect and helping to take care of my car. I appreciate Ira!
Edwin is great very knowledgeable and customer focused. Waiting area is clean and well equipped.
Concerns dont matter. Expectations not met. I went for 3 things. Oil change, sticker, and to look at my whipers because one was loose. My car was driving smoothly otherwise. I left 4 and 1/2 hours later and $420 in the hole after being sold an alignment, brake fluid flush, and a car driving like crap. I brought it back 2 days later to give them a chance to fix it instead of leaving a bad review. After another 4 hours they said they put my tires back and realigned it but it was even worse. When i turned around to tell them it wasnt fixed, ...
Dealership took appointment on short notice and price was good. Service advisor Rick was extremely nice and helpful.
John was informative and a pleasure to work with.. He listened to what we were interested in and found us exactly that.
Good service, good people and perfect quality of everything! Highly recommend this dealer and service
I have owned Toyotas for 20+ years and always had my car serviced at dealerships. Before this, I was serviced at Toyota of Watertown, Toyota of Wellesley and Boch Toyota. I never experienced the extra waiting time ( this visit for routine maintenance—I arrived at 2 pm with an estimated finish time of 4-4:30, but wasn’t finished until 6) that I have since I have been taking my Camry to Ira. Not just this time, but every time.. You seem to have a systemic issue and should at minimum provide realistic completion times. I still have reason to go to Metro West ...
Very efficient I was able to purchase trade in my auto finance and register plus have state inspection done to save me from a return to Ira Toyota the next day !
Everybody we dealt with was friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and informative. This made the transaction easier to accomplish w/o any negative vibes.
Angel my service asvisor is top notch. Helpful, professional and courteous. Will be calling him in the future for service
